Thank you!!! I created an actor a few days ago and I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to code him into the game, your template saved me!

Huzzah!

This is the Most Helpful thing for Creating new actors the quick way. THANK YER!!!! Also are you able to do one for Dropships and such? That would be very helpful.

Hmm, this looks like a very good idea to me!

Heya it looks like you don't have any gibbing code in your template except for the helmet. Gibbing is the fun part

Well,
It's supposed to be just basic for now, I think. It gets the job done.

PLEASE make this into a sticky. I can finally get all those actors I made into the game!

Yeah gets the job done. I guess the helmet gib is the teaser then

well, this was well accepted

as far as the gibs go, should i make a new pack with more gib opportunities, make a text file with the code you cut paste in the actors.ini, or both? if the first or last choice, tell me where the gibs should be and the number available

concerning rockets and dropships, i have no clue. at all. ill look into it but no promises.

ive got a template for guns (not rpg or long cannon like guns though will look into) that needs a bit of tweaking before release, but if i go straight to it, it wont take more than 5 or 10 minutes and could be released soon

so...what do you guys want?

p.s. how would i go about making this a sticky?

all i do is mess around with the Blue dude. check http://www.datarealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=939
for one of my dudes

yeah but doesnt that actor overwrite the existing blue clone? or maybe im thinking of a different actor...

I think the easist option would be do release a new template with the default clone/robot gibs and notation for where they should change (if someone wants to change the gibbing). So basically your template would use the default gib animations / sounds. The gibbing doesn't need name changes to work, where as the actors do.

If you want people to cut and paste the gib code, you'll need to mark every location on your actor template where the gib code should go. There is going to be a gib code for every attachable piece (other than the feet and hands).

the marking idea sounds like too much work for lazy me, but i know what im going to do, im gonna make a new template that has a gib opportunity for the head, body, arm, and leg.

hopefully i can release that and a gun template soon

forgive the double post, but theres an update and i dont want this to be buried under spam

please forgive the gun readme also (i worry too much but i know that one sucks...)

forgive the triple post but, bump-date
